The formation of heterometallic molecular architectures with 3d-metal atoms linked by carboxylate bridges with alkali and alkaline-earth metal ions or with lanthanides

Resumo

Data on the synthesis of carboxylate complexes combining transition 3d metals and diverse heterometals (Li-, Mg-, and Ln-M(3d)) are reviewed. The factors that are essential to the structure of heterometallic complexes were revealed. Stable metal-containing moieties capable of forming both molecular and polymeric structures were identified.
